Carolyn Ummel Lindquist, PhD
I love my work as a psychologist and look forward to helping you with whatever challenges you would like to explore and resolve. I enjoy both traditional psychotherapy and coaching by telephone and e-mail. I have 20+ years in private practice as a licensed clinical psychologist. I am probably most well known for working with especially urgent, difficult, high conflict couples and for the treatment of trauma in individuals using EMDR. Couples and individuals benefit in therapy when we create a peaceful, safe haven for our work.
Specialties include high conflict couples, EMDR, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Adult Attention Deficit Disorder, and post divorce family issues. More than 25 years experience. Both short term focused and long term therapy depending on your goals.
